Living in the house he gave him, spending the money he gave him, and even having all kinds of delicacies delivered by someone every day, Cheng Lu was a little powerless under these offensives.
Zhu Chun said: "If you don't want it, you can give it to me. I just lack an opportunity to appear in front of everyone openly again. I believe that Mr. Gu can definitely help me."
What these words earned was Cheng Lu's big eye rolls, and he directly announced that Zhu Chun had no dinner that day.
Zhu Chun was helpless. She was obviously an assist, why was she reduced to this?
After quitting his job at the medical center, Cheng Lu was thinking about what he should do next.
She still has the previous piece of land in her hand, and there are Yaowang Mountain and Cuisong Mountain behind her.
It's better... to open a medicine shop.
This way, you don't have to compete with medical centers for business, and you don't have to worry about wasting your career.
She just did what she said. She immediately tapped the funds she had on hand, contacted her elder brother Cheng Kang, and discussed the matter with him. Cheng Kang agreed and was filled with joy.
"If our land can be reused, I think my parents will be very happy." Cheng Kang was very excited.
Cheng Lu: "Well, don't worry about funding. I have money here."
Cheng Kang: "I know you are rich. I watched the live broadcast of the previous press conference..."
The elder brother's words meant something, and her cheeks instantly became hot.
Even over the phone, she felt a little overwhelmed.
Cheng Kang quickly noticed his sister's mood: "Actually, he treats you well."
"Yeah, but I don't want to talk about this anymore. It would be best for him to separate from me."
"Xiaolu, you don't understand men, especially men who are deeply in love with you. The more you act like this, the crazier he will become. Gu Ci is not the kind of person who is afraid of trouble, and he doesn't need a woman to protect him."
I have to say that Cheng Kang hit the point with these two sentences.
She was speechless and hesitated for a while, unable to speak clearly.
Cheng Kang smiled: "Okay, girl, I'm your brother. I know exactly what you're thinking. I'm just telling you that he might not let go. You also saw what he said to the media at that time. You now
When you’re pregnant, you have to put yourself first in everything, do you understand?”
Her heart warmed after hearing her eldest brother's numerous advice.
"Yeah." She forced herself to swallow more, "I know, don't worry."
Soon, the matter of investing in Yaolu was left to Cheng Kang.
Over the years in Sichuan City, Cheng Kang's ability has been obvious to all, and he has also met many professional teams.
In just two or three days, Cheng Lu had signed a contract with the cooperation team and started to break ground.
On this day, Li Xiumeng invited Cheng Lu home for dinner.
Cheng Lu understood that it would be outrageous to refuse again, so he decisively accepted the appointment.
Before setting off, she made a special trip to the mall to buy some gifts for Mr. Li and Li Xiumeng.
As soon as she got out of the car, a gust of cool wind blew in her face, and she couldn't help but tremble all over.
So cold!
I didn't expect it to be so cold after the sun went down.
She was so busy today that she didn't even notice the weather.
Suddenly, my shoulders felt heavy, and then my whole body felt warm.
She subconsciously looked down and saw that it was a men's windbreaker draped over her shoulders.
Looking slightly sideways, she met Gu Ci's eyes.
As if she was electrocuted, she quickly looked away and cleared her throat pretending to be calm: "What are you doing here? And... thank you for the clothes, but I really don't need them."
She was about to take off her clothes and give them back to him.
The man directly pressed her shoulders and wrapped his big hands together with her small ones, making her feel warm all of a sudden.
"Your hands are so cold, and you still say you don't need them? It doesn't matter if you get frozen, but what if my baby gets frozen?" Gu Ci smiled evilly, "Put it on and return it to me later."
Cheng Lu looked at this cynical smiling face and really wanted to punch him hard.
While she was dazed, the man naturally took her hand and walked forward.
"What do you want to buy? Have you already chosen it?"
"Let go, Gu Ci! We have separated!"
He looked back gently: "You can shout louder so that others can hear you."
Cheng Lu:……
It’s so bad!
Knowing that she cares about saving face, there is no way she would conflict with him in public.
Cheng Lu hesitated, but he was already leading him into the mall hall.
The lights inside are bright, bright and luxurious.
She knew that this was also one of Gu Ci's investment projects, the most luxurious business district in Sichuan City.
She didn't want to come here at first, but unfortunately she gave instructions to the driver smoothly when she got in the car. Sure enough, she had been with this guy for a long time, and some of her habits had been deeply rooted in her bones.
Gu Ci held her hand and soon arrived at a jewelry store.
Cheng Lu said with a straight face: "I want to give some gifts to the Li family."
"Oh, then you can take a look, I'm just here to pick up something I ordered before."
Gu Ci let go of his hand and strode to the staff, not knowing what he said.
She breathed a sigh of relief. As long as this man didn't follow her all the time, she would feel much relieved.
She took it easy when she came, and started shopping slowly, and soon selected a jade snuff bottle and a pair of jade bracelets. She asked the waiter to wrap them up, and she hurriedly prepared to pay for them while Gu Ci was not paying attention.
Unexpectedly, the clerk told her: "The gentleman has already paid."
"But...he doesn't even know what I bought." Cheng Lu frowned slightly, "I still pay for my own things."
"Um...ma'am, please don't embarrass us. This is what Mr. Gu ordered before. As long as he brings his wife with him, the bill will automatically be in Mr. Gu's name. We can't change this."
Bring your wives with you...
Hearing these words made Cheng Lu feel slightly sad.
If not himself, who will he bring with him next time?
Also, they are already divorced. Isn't it normal for Gu to resign and find someone else?
This is his freedom.
Thinking of this, she took the packaging bag with a heavy mouth and said nothing.
Just as he was about to leave on his own, Gu Ci came back.
She glanced at him, her hands empty.
Cheng Lu almost wanted to laugh at herself. It was obviously better for each other to separate. Why was she still so dejected? What did this guy buy in the jewelry store have to do with her?
She forced herself to turn her face: "Thank you for the windbreaker, I'm going to Li's house now."
"Just in time, let's go together."
"How can I drop by Li's house?"
This guy is lying!
Gu Ci smiled slightly: "Why, the Li family can invite you but you can't invite me? You are the goddaughter of the Li family, and I am the former and future godson-in-law of the Li family."
Cheng Lu was stunned: "You..."
Before she could react, he had already pulled her into the car.
That's right, it's still Cheng Lu's car.
The two of them went straight to Li's house together.
Cheng Lu in the car was really regretful. He would have never made this trip if he had known it.
The windbreaker slipped off her shoulders, and the man stretched out his hand to lift it up for her.
